Prepared by: Rescan™ Tahltan Environmental Consultants Vancouver, British Columbia Citation: Rescan™ Tahltan Environmental Consultants (RTEC). 2010. Schaft Creek Project: Land and Resource Use Baseline . Prepared for Copper Fox Metals Inc. May 2010. SCHAFT CREEK PROJECT: LAND AND RESOURCE USE BASELINE Executive Summary Executive Summary The proposed Schaft Creek Project is located in an area with a number of overlapping land use activities and tenures. Many of these activities - including guide outfitting, commercial recreation, and First Nations land use - value the area for its remote, wilderness characteristics. Others, such as mineral developers, may have different priorities. The Project also lies within the asserted traditional territory of the Tahltan Nation, a First Nation with its own goals and objectives regarding the development and/or preservation of the natural landscape. Overall, development objectives of the land and resources have been established by the Cassiar Iskut- Stikine Land and Resource Management Plan (LRMP), which generally supports mineral development, subject to environmental standards and regulations. In addition, the Tahltan Nation is also developing a land management plan for their territory. In recognition of the dependency of many land use activities (e.g., hunting) on the nature of the biophysical environment (e.g., wildlife), the land and resource use study area covers the extent of the biophysical study area for the proposed Schaft Creek Project. Table 1 identifies the land use interests identified within this area. Table 1. Land Use Interests Related to the Proposed Schaft Creek Project Parks and protected areas The proposed mine site is located approximately 15 km from the southwest corner of the Mt. Edziza Provincial Park, while the Galore Creek Access Road is located across the river from the Iskut Hot Springs Provincial Park. Mineral exploration and development The proposed Schaft Creek Project would share an access road with the proposed Galore Creek Project. Other exploration projects in the vicinity of Schaft Creek include KSM, Bruckjack, Mt. Dunn, Bronson Slope, and Trek. Guide outfitting The majority of Project infrastructure is located within the guide outfitting licence held by Northwest Ranching & Outfitting. Other licences overlapping the peripheral of the study area are held by Misty Mountain Outfitters, Golden Bear Outfitting, and Kinaskan Lake Outfitters. Traplines The majority of Project infrastructure is located within the trapline licence held by Ken Cottrell. In total, eight trapline territories overlap the study area. Other tenures Other land use interests include water licences, angling guides, grazing/range tenures, cabins, commercial recreation, forestry, transportation, and tourism. Tahltan land use The Tahltan Nation values the study area for a variety of subsistence and cultural activities, including hunting, trapping, fishing, and plant harvests.

The divisions shown on the accompanying sketch, Figure 2, and the nomenclature used in the text are those proposed by Bostock. Most of the Province of British Columbia lies within the region of mountains and plateaus, the Cordillera of Western Canada, that forms the western border of the North American Continent. The extreme northeastern comer of the Province, lying east of the Cordillera, is part of the Great Plains region. The Rocky Mountain Area extends along the eastern boundary of the Province for a distance of 400 miles, and continues northwestward for an additional 500 miles entirely within the Province. The high, rugged Rocky Mountains, averaging about 50 miles in width, are flanked on the west by a remarkably long and straight valley, known as the Rocky Mountain Trench, and occupied from south to north by the Kootenay, Columbia, Canoe, Fraser, Parsnip, Finlay, Fox, and Kechika Rivers. Of these, the first four flow into the Pacific Ocean and the second four join the Mackenzie River to flow ultimately into the Arctic Ocean.

These reports are narrative outlines of how Indian and non-native populations have used these -rivers, with emphasis on navigability, tidal influence, riparian interests, settlement patterns, commercial use and fishing rights. These historical reports were requested by the Interdepartmental Reserve Boundary Review Committee, a body comprising representatives from Indian Affairs and Northern Development [DIAND], Justice, Energy, Mines and Resources [EMR], and chaired by Fisheries and Oceans. The committee is tasked with establishing a government position on reserve boundaries that can assist in determining the area of application of Indian Band fishing by-laws.

  • 22-A 2012 Social Baseline Report
    APPENDIX 22-A 2012 SOCIAL BASELINE REPORT TM Seabridge Gold Inc. KSM PROJECT 2012 Social Baseline Report Rescan™ Environmental Services Ltd. Rescan Building, Sixth Floor - 1111 West Hastings Street Vancouver, BC Canada V6E 2J3 January 2013 Tel: (604) 689-9460 Fax: (604) 687-4277 Executive Summary Seabridge Gold Inc. is proposing to develop the KSM Project (the Project), a gold, copper, silver, and molybdenum mine located in northwestern British Columbia. The proposed Project is approximately 950 km northwest of Vancouver and 65 km northwest of Stewart, within 30 km of the British Columbia–Alaska border (Figure 1.2-1). The estimated initial capital cost of the Project is US$5.3 billion. The Project is split between two geographical areas: the Mine Site and Processing and Tailing Management Area (PTMA), connected by twin 23-km tunnels (Mitchell-Treaty Twinned Tunnels; Figure 1.2-2). The Mine Site will be located south of the closed Eskay Creek Mine, within the Mitchell Creek, McTagg Creek, and Sulphurets Creek valleys. Sulphurets Creek is a main tributary of the Unuk River, which flows to the Pacific Ocean. The PTMA will be located in the upper tributaries of Teigen and Treaty creeks. Both creeks are tributaries of the Bell-Irving River, which flows into the Nass River and Pacific Ocean. The PTMA is located about 19 km southwest of Bell II on Highway 37. This social baseline report presents a comprehensive overview of the past and present social environment and context of the proposed Project, including patterns, trends, and changes over time. It outlines relevant social factors for which data on communities in the Project area are available, such as society and governance; population and demographics; education, skills and training (level of achievement, elementary, secondary, post-secondary, and adult education); health and social services (facilities, services, trends, and issues); recreation; protection services (crime index, police, fire, and ambulance); and infrastructure (utilities, communications, transportation, and housing).

The project also updated the Natural Resources Canada website and map of fatal avalanche incidents. Avalanches have been responsible for at least 702 fatalities in Canada since the earliest recorded incident in 1782. Sixty-one percent of these fatalities occurred in British Columbia, with 13% in Alberta, 11% in Quebec and 10% in Newfoundland and Labrador. The remainder occurred in Ontario, Nova Scotia and the Yukon, Northwest and Nunavut Territories. Fifty-three percent of the fatalities were people engaged in recreational activities, while 18% were people in or near buildings, 16% were travelling or working on transportation corridors and 8% were working in resource industries.

Department The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada DE-6 (2/88) ABSTRACT: The Skeena Mountains of north-central British Columbia contain exposures of more than 4500 m of Jura-Cretaceous strata deposited in the Bowser Basin. These strata were deposited as a result of tectonism that formed the Canadian Cordillera, and serve as a record of the tectonic history of the Cordillera. The strata of the north-central Bowser Basin have been the subject of an integrated lithostratigraphic, palynostratigraphic and sedimentologic study in order to better understand the depositional history of the basin and the tectonic history of the Cordillera.
